Perks of the military

One perk of military life is cool free stuff!  The most recent was a monster truck show.  All the kids loved it!  Dennis snapped a couple of good pics of the truck in action.  

Our neighbors and friends.  We are so blessed to have good friends here!

Emma loves these girls!

Doing it some more!

Also Emma's new haircut for those who are interested...

We got it cut early that morning and then she played outside all day so this doesn't do it justice but you get the picture.  

On our way to UT we decided to drive through Yellowstone.  We stopped at this lake and took some pictures.  Dennis and I thought it looked almost fake in the pics but those are real mountains you see there not just a backdrop! 

 This big guy walked right past our car.  A little too close for comfort if you ask me.  The pic was taken from Dennis' window.  This was probably the highlight of our drive through the park.

We sure enjoyed our time in UT.  Our kids keep asking when they will get to see everyone again!  Thanks for the great time!  

I guess people like hearing experiences with our children since we don't get to see everyone much.  So a quick story:

As we are leaving the base one day we see a B-52 (really big airplane) coming in to land at the base.  

Amber:  "look kids that's the plane that Brother Stucki, Bro. Jensen, and Bro. Dyer all fly"  (all pilots in our neighborhood) they are all pilots!  

Will:  They are pilots?

Emma:  When will Daddy be a pilot?

Amber: Daddy won't be a pilot, he's a dentist.  He fixes the pilots teeth.  

Emma: Well..that's not as...(long pause)...special.

Dennis thinks he may hang the quote in his office.
